The mystery behind why Alaskan horses, cryptodiran turtles and island lizards shrunk over time may have been solved in a new study. The new theoretical research proposes that animal size over time ...

A new study theorizes that evolution ticks at different speeds, especially when a big group of organisms first appears.

Human evolution is often told as a tidy story of adaptation, yet some of our most familiar body parts still defy straightforward explanation. From the jut of the human chin to the curve of the outer ...

Yet modern biology has revealed that cells are preternaturally sophisticated assemblages — literally automated, miniaturized factories. How could the evidence have been overwhelming but now orthodoxy ...

Assembly theory bridges the gap between physics and biology in explaining how complex objects are identifiable as products of evolution and how reusability of parts allows novelty and identical ...
